“And where were they? Most of those standing on this platform were in Artsakh during the war. And where were they? Were they handing over Shushi and Hadrut? Who are they talking about?” RPA Deputy Chairman Eduard Sharmazanov stated at a briefing with journalists on Wednesday, referring to the qualifications of the ruling team that they will save Artsakh not by going to France Square, but by going to and working for Artsakh, and questions about where the demonstrators were during the war.
“Do they mean the national heroes who brought the Turks to their knees: Seyran Ohanyan, Serzh Sargsyan, Khachaturov, Robert Kocharyan, the ARF boys, ordinary citizens? And who are they? Before the war, they were doing a photo session in Aghdam with pomegranates in their hands, saying that Aghdam is our homeland. Why aren’t they going now? Nikol gave away their homeland without firing a single shot. They know very well where we were during the war. During the war I met twice with their boss, Nikol. Russia had made an offer, he said he would stop the war, why didn’t he stop it? Let him agree with 5 + 2. Are those destroying the army talking about war today? Wasn’t it Nikol who said, don’t be mistaken, I am the commander-in-chief? That commander took 5,000 children and killed them. Are they still talking about the fact that 41 square kilometers of the territory of the Republic of Armenia is occupied by Azerbaijan?” Sharmazanov asked.
